Review of short films

I have completed some research on short films and music videos from the previous year 13.

War Bound: 47/50
The title of the short film gives a good indication as to what it is going to be about. I like the use of the music and no dialogue as it still manages to portray the story as well as the music creates a dramatic genre to the film.

In Unison:47/50
I liked the idea of the story progressing over a many years and the dialogue and music fitted the short film itself. The story line also attracted the audience as they would want to know what would happen at the end.

The Note: 46/50
I thought the plot and overall layout of the short film was very well done and kept the audience wanting to know what would happen.

Odds and Ends: 45/50
I thought the music video fit with the lyrics of the song and added something different to the others as it had animated sections.

Dear Devil: 45/50
I thought that it represented a horror trailer due to the sharp and quick cuts that creates tension as well as the music that built it up so that something was going to happen.

Phoenix: 46/50
I thought this music video added comedy to the music video and the lip syncing came across very realistic.

Dream: 48/50
In my opinion, I thought that the short film portrayed the message it was meant to and the use of music made it a more emotional and touching story.
